[0053] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0054] The present application discloses an electronic device, a structural schematic diagram of which is shown in Figure 1 The present application discloses an electronic device, a structural schematic diagram of which is shown in

[0055] The conductor connection structure 11, the detection device 12 and the prompting device 13.

[0056] The conductor connection structure 11 is used to be electrically connected with the connecting device when being physically connected with the connecting device, wherein the connecting device is used to limit the moving range of the electronic device.

[0057] The detection device 12 is used to enter a detection mode when determining that the conductor connection structure is electrically connected with the connecting device, and determine whether to output the prompting information according to the detection result obtained in the detection mode.

[0058] The prompting device 13 is used to output the prompting information.

[0059] The conductor connection structure is arranged inside the electronic device, and the connecting device can be physically connected with the electronic device through the conductor connection structure, so that the electronic device is locked in a certain range by the connecting device, that is, after the conductor connection structure in the electronic device is physically connected with the connecting device, the electronic device can only move randomly in a certain space range, and cannot reach outside the space range.

[0060] Specifically, after the conductor connection structure is connected with the connecting device, the connecting device can lock the electronic device on a certain fixed object which is inconvenient to move, so that the electronic device is also in an inconvenient-to-move state after being locked, and due to the length of the connecting device, the electronic device can only have a certain moving space around the fixed object which is inconvenient to move, for example, the connecting device locks the electronic device on the leg of a table or a bed, so that the electronic device can only move around the leg of the table or the bed within a certain range, and cannot exceed the moving range. Figure 2 The present application discloses an electronic device, a structural schematic diagram of which is shown in

[0061] When the electronic device is physically connected with the connecting device through the conductor connecting structure, the conductor connecting structure and the connecting device are electrically connected due to the physical connection between the conductor connecting structure and the connecting device. For example, when the conductor connecting structure and the connecting device are in contact, the conductor connecting structure and the connecting device are electrically connected due to the contact between them. Thus, the connecting device and the electronic device are electrically connected in addition to the physical connection, and the electrical connection can be detected.

[0062] To ensure that the conductor connecting structure and the connecting device are electrically connected when the conductor connecting structure is physically connected with the connecting device, the conductor connecting structure and the connecting device should be designed such that when the conductor connecting structure is physically connected with the connecting device, the position of the conductor connecting structure that is in contact with the connecting device is a conductor part, and the position of the connecting device that is in contact with the conductor connecting structure is also a conductor part. The two conductor parts are in contact, and thus the electrical connection is achieved.

[0063] Specifically, the electronic device further includes a detection device that can detect the electrical connection between the conductor connecting structure and the connecting device. When the connecting device is physically connected with the conductor connecting structure, the connecting device and the conductor connecting structure are electrically connected. The electrical connection between the connecting device and the conductor connecting structure forms a loop for the line related to the conductor connecting structure, and thus the detection device in the line can detect an electrical signal to determine that the conductor connecting structure and the connecting device are electrically connected.

[0064] When the detection device determines that the conductor connecting structure and the connecting device are electrically connected, the detection device enters a detection mode. Specifically, when the conductor connecting structure and the connecting device are electrically connected, the line related to the conductor connecting structure forms a loop, and the detection device determines that the conductor connecting structure and the connecting device are electrically connected based on the formed loop. As long as the conductor connecting structure and the connecting device are electrically connected to form a loop, the detection device enters the detection mode.

[0065] In the detection mode, the detection device can detect and determine whether to output a prompt information based on the detection result. If the prompt information needs to be output, the prompt information is generated and output through a prompt device.

[0066] The detection performed by the detection device can be detecting whether the state of the electrical connection changes, or detecting whether the spatial state of the electronic device changes, or detecting other information, such as detecting whether a person passes through a preset range of the electronic device, detecting whether the running state of the electronic device changes, etc., or detecting whether the electronic device exceeds its moving range.

[0067] The detection device determines the information detected by the detection device based on the logic designed in the detection device, and judges based on the detected result. When the prompt information needs to be generated, the prompt information is generated to play a warning role.

[0068] The electronic device disclosed in the embodiment comprises a conductor connection structure, a detection device and a prompt device. When the conductor connection structure is physically connected with the connection device, the conductor connection structure and the connection device are electrically connected, which ensures that the movement range of the electronic device is further limited through electrical connection after the movement range of the electronic device is limited through physical connection, so that when the state of physical connection or electrical connection changes, the change can be directly determined based on electrical connection, and then prompt information is output, the detection efficiency is improved, and the electronic device is limited in movement range while the prompt information is used as a prompt.

[0069] The electronic device disclosed in the embodiment comprises a conductor connection structure, a detection device and a prompt device. When the conductor connection structure is physically connected with the connection device, the conductor connection structure and the connection device are electrically connected, which ensures that the movement range of the electronic device is further limited through electrical connection after the movement range of the electronic device is limited through physical connection, so that when the state of physical connection or electrical connection changes, the change can be directly determined based on electrical connection, and then prompt information is output, the detection efficiency is improved, and the electronic device is limited in movement range while the prompt information is used as a prompt. Figure 1 The electronic device disclosed in the embodiment comprises a conductor connection structure, a detection device and a prompt device. When the conductor connection structure is physically connected with the connection device, the conductor connection structure and the connection device are electrically connected, which ensures that the movement range of the electronic device is further limited through electrical connection after the movement range of the electronic device is limited through physical connection, so that when the state of physical connection or electrical connection changes, the change can be directly determined based on electrical connection, and then prompt information is output, the detection efficiency is improved, and the electronic device is limited in movement range while the prompt information is used as a prompt.

[0070] The conductor connection structure 11, the detection device 12 and the prompt device 13.

[0071] In addition to the same structure as the previous embodiment, the detection device in the embodiment at least comprises a first processor in a working mode when the electronic device is in an arbitrary permission state.

[0072] The first processor is configured to output first prompt information when it is detected that the electrical connection between the conductor connection structure and the connection device is disconnected.

[0073] The disconnection of the electrical connection between the conductor connection structure and the connection device at least indicates the disconnection of the electrical connection between the connection device and the electronic device, or the disconnection of the electrical connection of the internal circuit of the connection device.

[0074] The detection device at least comprises a first processor, which is in a working mode when the electronic device is in an arbitrary permission state. This ensures that the detection device can execute the detection process and generate prompt information by the first processor regardless of the current permission state of the electronic device, avoiding the situation that when the detection device uses a processor that is not always in a working mode, the detection device cannot execute the detection process when the processor is in a non-working mode, resulting in the failure to monitor and prompt.

[0075] The electronic device is in any permission state, which can be: the electronic device is in a running state, and the electronic device is in a first permission state, at this time, the first permission state can be a full permission state or a larger permission state; the electronic device is in a sleep state, and the electronic device is in a second permission state, at this time, the second permission state can be a partial permission state, that is, the electronic device only has part of the permission turned on; the electronic device is in a shutdown state, and the electronic device is in a third permission state, at this time, the third permission state can be a no permission state, that is, the electronic device is in a state where any permission is not turned on.

[0076] When the electronic device is in any permission state, the first processor is in a working mode, that is, whether the electronic device is in a running, sleep, hibernation, shutdown state, or any other state, the first processor is in a working mode and can normally work, or at least part of it can normally work.

[0077] The first processor can be determined as an embedded controller EC that is always in a working mode, or it can also be a chip integrated with a specific program, at least part of the chip is always in a working mode, so that the chip can detect, or it can also be a specific integrated circuit that can normally run in any permission state of the electronic device, etc.

[0078] The first processor is used to monitor the state of the electrical connection between the conductor connection structure and the connecting device, and determine whether the electrical connection is disconnected. If it is disconnected, a first prompt information is output, and if it is not disconnected, no prompt information needs to be output.

[0079] The electrical connection between the conductor connection structure and the connecting device is caused by the physical connection between the conductor connection structure and the connecting device. Due to the physical connection between the conductor connection structure and the connecting device, the conductor connection structure and the connecting device are electrically connected to form a loop. If the electrical connection is disconnected, at least it indicates that the loop is disconnected and a circuit is formed.

[0080] In the case that the conductor connection structure and the detection device of the electronic device do not have problems, if the electrical connection between the conductor connection structure and the connecting device is disconnected, at least it indicates that the physical connection between the conductor connection structure and the connecting device is disconnected, or the internal circuit of the connecting device is disconnected, thereby causing the electrical connection between the conductor connection structure and the connecting device to be disconnected.

[0081] The physical connection between the conductor connection structure and the connecting device is disconnected, that is, the connecting device is pulled out of the conductor connection structure, so that the connecting device is separated from the electronic device and is no longer in a connected state. At this time, since the conductor connection structure and the connecting device no longer have physical contact, the electrical connection is naturally disconnected.

[0082] The disconnection of the electrical connection between the conductor connection structure and the connection device is caused by the disconnection of the internal circuit of the connection device, and the physical connection between the conductor connection structure and the connection device causes the electrical connection to be formed. Therefore, at least one section of the disconnected circuit is included in the connection device, and the detection device and the conductor connection structure also form a section of the disconnected circuit. After the electrical connection between the two sections of the disconnected circuit based on the conductor connection structure and the connection device, the complete circuit formed by the disconnected circuit in the connection device and the disconnected circuit formed by the detection device and the conductor connection structure is achieved. When the internal circuit of the connection device is partially disconnected, the complete circuit is disconnected again, and the disconnection position is in the internal circuit of the connection device.

[0083] The disconnection of the internal circuit of the connection device is usually caused by the cutting of the connection device, or the aging or disconnection of the internal conductor of the connection device.

[0084] If the disconnection of the electrical connection between the conductor connection structure and the connection device is caused by the disconnection of the physical connection between the conductor connection structure and the electronic device, or the disconnection of the electrical connection of the internal circuit of the connection device, the state of the electronic device being limited in a certain movement range by the connection device is broken. After the electrical connection between the conductor connection structure and the connection device is disconnected, it is indicated that the connection device is pulled out or the connection device is cut. Therefore, the electronic device can be moved outside the movement range, which may affect the safety of the electronic device and cause the electronic device to be stolen.

[0085] Of course, the disconnection of the electrical connection between the conductor connection structure and the connection device may also be caused by the disconnection of the circuit section formed by the detection device and the conductor connection structure, which may also cause the circuit to be disconnected and the electrical connection to be disconnected.

[0086] Regardless of the reason for the disconnection of the electrical connection between the conductor connection structure and the connection device, whether it is caused by the disconnection of the physical connection between the connection device and the electronic device, or the disconnection of the internal conductor of the connection device, or the disconnection of the circuit formed by the detection device and the conductor connection structure, the disconnection of the electrical connection between the conductor connection structure and the connection device will be detected by the first processor. Based on the detected disconnection of the electrical connection, the first processor will generate a prompt information, and the prompt device will output the prompt information to remind the user.

[0087] The prompt information can be a sound prompt or a light effect prompt.

[0088] If the electrical connection of the conductor connection structure and the connecting device is disconnected due to the physical connection between the connecting device and the electronic device being disconnected or due to the wire inside the connecting device being disconnected, it can be that the connecting device is violently pulled out or violently cut off, and based on the prompt information, a warning effect on the person who violently pulls out or violently cuts off can be achieved, and the user can be reminded to check the electronic device, which avoids the electronic device being moved out of the movement range defined by the connecting device and ensures the safety of the electronic device; and since the first processor is in the working mode when the electronic device is in any permission state and can perform detection, it is ensured that the first processor can detect the state of the electrical connection regardless of whether the electronic device is in a running state or a shutdown state, so that the first processor can play a warning or reminding role regardless of the state of the electronic device.

[0089] It should be noted that no matter which controller the first processor is in the electronic device, it can detect whether the electrical connection of the conductor connection structure and the connecting device is disconnected, and can perform other functions, the specific functions performed by the first processor are related to the functions of the first processor, and are not limited here.

[0090] The electronic device disclosed in the embodiment includes a conductor connection structure, a detection device and a prompt device, wherein the detection device at least includes a first processor, the first processor can monitor whether the electrical connection of the conductor connection structure and the connecting device is disconnected, and when the electrical connection is disconnected, outputs a first prompt information, and no matter the electronic device is in any permission state, the first processor is in a working mode, which ensures that the first processor is in the working mode and can detect the electrical connection of the conductor connection structure and the connecting device regardless of the permission state of the electronic device, so that the electronic device can output the prompt information regardless of the permission state of the electronic device to ensure the safety of the electronic device.

[0091] The electronic device disclosed in the embodiment has a structure diagram as shown in Figure 3 , which includes:

[0092] The conductor connection structure 31, the detection device and the prompt device 33, wherein the detection device includes a sensor 321 and a first processor 322.

[0093] In addition to the same structure as the previous embodiment, the detection device in the embodiment includes a sensor and a first processor.

[0094] The sensor is used to detect the spatial information of the electronic device, and the first processor is used to output a second prompt information when it is determined that the spatial information meets a preset condition, wherein the spatial information meeting the preset condition at least indicates that the electronic device is moved, and the first processor is in the working mode when the electronic device is in any permission state.

[0095] The detection device forms a loop among the detection device, the conductor connecting structure and the connecting device when determining that the conductor connecting structure is electrically connected with the connecting device, that is, the detection device enters a detection mode after determining that the loop is formed, and the spatial information of the electronic device is detected by the sensor so that the first processor can determine whether to output the prompt information based on the spatial information.

[0096] The spatial information of the electronic device can be the moving speed of the electronic device or the position information of the electronic device. If the sensor in the detection device is an acceleration sensor, the spatial information is the moving speed of the electronic device. If the sensor in the detection device is a position sensor, the spatial information is the position information of the electronic device. The position sensor can be satellite positioning or wireless positioning.

[0097] No matter whether the spatial information of the electronic device is the moving speed or the position information, or both the moving speed and the position information, as long as the sensor detects the position information, the first processor judges whether the prompt information needs to be outputted.

[0098] The first processor outputs the second prompt information when determining that the spatial information meets the preset condition. The first processor can determine whether the moving speed detected by the acceleration sensor reaches a first preset value. If the moving speed reaches the first preset value, it at least indicates that the electronic device is moved and the moving speed is fast.

[0099] In this case, the possible scenarios are that the electronic device is quickly picked up and moved by a person, which may be to steal the electronic device, or the electronic device is touched by a person passing by quickly, which causes the electronic device to move quickly. No matter which scenario above, it may affect the safety of the electronic device. Therefore, as long as the first processor determines that the moving speed of the electronic device reaches the first preset value, the prompt information is generated to make the prompt device output the prompt information to prompt the user that the safety of the electronic device is affected, so as to warn the person who steals the electronic device and / or prompt the user to check the electronic device to avoid the loss or damage of the electronic device.

[0100] When the sensor detects that the moving speed of the electronic device reaches the first preset value, the first processor generates the prompt information to make the prompt device output to produce the prompting effect. At the same time, since the connecting device still physically connects with the electronic device, even if the moving speed of the electronic device reaches the first preset value, the electronic device will not exceed the moving range limited by the connecting device. This realizes the prompting effect through the electrical connection on the basis of the physical connection to ensure the safety of the electronic device.

[0101] The first processor outputs the second prompt information when the spatial information meets the preset condition, and the first processor can also output the second prompt information based on the spatial information determining that the electronic device moves from the starting position to the terminal position via the first position, and the distance between the starting position and the first position is greater than the distance between the starting position and the terminal position.

[0102] Since the distance between the starting position and the first position is greater than the distance between the starting position and the terminal position, the position sensor first detects that the electronic device reaches the first position from the starting position, that is, first reaches a position at a relatively far distance, and then detects that the electronic device reaches the terminal position from the first position, that is, reaches a position at a relatively close distance from the starting position.

[0103] As shown in FIG. 1, Figure 2 As shown in FIG. 1, the electronic device is limited in a movement range of a fixed object by the connecting device, and the movement range is related to the length of the connecting device, Figure 2 As shown in FIG. 1, the electronic device is located at the starting position in the initial state; the position sensor detects that the electronic device moves from the starting position to the first position, as shown in FIG. 2, Figure 4 As shown in FIG. 2, the electronic device reaches the first position from the starting position, and at this time, the connecting device is straightened to reach the edge of the movement range in which the electronic device is limited, and since the connecting device has been straightened and cannot be extended any more, the electronic device reaches the position at the farthest distance, and if the electronic device is picked up and moved at a relatively fast speed, the connecting device will rebound after being quickly straightened, that is, reaches the position as shown in FIG. 3, that is, the terminal position, and the distance between the terminal position and the starting position is less than the distance between the first position and the starting position, Figure 5 As shown in FIG. 3, the electronic device reaches the terminal position from the first position, and at this time, the connecting device is straightened to reach the edge of the movement range in which the electronic device is limited, and since the connecting device has been straightened and cannot be extended any more, the electronic device reaches the position at the farthest distance, and if the electronic device is picked up and moved at a relatively fast speed, the connecting device will rebound after being quickly straightened, that is, reaches the position as shown in FIG. 3, that is, the terminal position, and the distance between the terminal position and the starting position is less than the distance between the first position and the starting position, Figure 5 As shown in FIG. 3, the electronic device reaches the terminal position from the first position, and at this time, the connecting device is straightened to reach the edge of the movement range in which the electronic device is limited, and since the connecting device has been straightened and cannot be extended any more, the electronic device reaches the position at the farthest distance, and if the electronic device is picked up and moved at a relatively fast speed, the connecting device will rebound after being quickly straightened, that is, reaches the position as shown in FIG. 3, that is, the terminal position, and the distance between the terminal position and the starting position is less than the distance between the first position and the starting position,

[0104] As shown in FIG. 3, the electronic device reaches the terminal position from the first position, and at this time, the connecting device is straightened to reach the edge of the movement range in which the electronic device is limited, and since the connecting device has been straightened and cannot be extended any more, the electronic device reaches the position at the farthest distance, and if the electronic device is picked up and moved at a relatively fast speed, the connecting device will rebound after being quickly straightened, that is, reaches the position as shown in FIG. 3, that is, the terminal position, and the distance between the terminal position and the starting position is less than the distance between the first position and the starting position,

[0105] Further, the acceleration sensor and the position sensor in the detection device can be used to detect simultaneously, and the first processor can output the second prompt information if the average speed of the electronic device moving from the starting position to the ending position through the first position is greater than the second preset value, where the distance between the starting position and the first position is greater than the distance between the starting position and the ending position, that is, the first processor detects the position information and the speed information simultaneously to determine whether the prompt information needs to be output.

[0106] The electronic device disclosed in the present scheme includes a conductor connection structure, a detection device, and a prompt device. The detection device includes a sensor and a first processor. The first processor detects whether the electronic device is moved and outputs prompt information when the movement information meets a preset condition. The present scheme avoids the problem that the user does not know that the electronic device is moved, thereby affecting the safety of the electronic device. The present scheme improves the safety of the electronic device by outputting the prompt information when the movement of the electronic device meets the condition on the basis of ensuring that the electronic device can only move within a moving range.

[0107] The electronic device disclosed in the present embodiment has a structure diagram as shown in Figure 6 The electronic device includes a conductor connection structure, a detection device, and a prompt device.

[0108] The conductor connection structure 61, the first resistor 62, the detection device 63, and the prompt device 64.

[0109] In addition to the same structure as the above-mentioned embodiments, the present embodiment further includes the first resistor 62.

[0110] The first resistor is arranged between the conductor connection structure and the detection device.

[0111] If the first processor in the detection device monitors that the level of the first interface is switched from the first level to the second level, it is determined that the detection device is electrically connected with the connection device, where the first interface is an interface in communication with the first resistor.

[0112] If the first processor monitors that the level of the first interface is switched from the second level to the first level, it is determined that the electrical connection between the detection device and the connection device is disconnected.

[0113] The first resistor is arranged between the conductor connection structure and the detection device. When the conductor connection structure is physically connected with the connection device, the conductor connection structure and the connection device are electrically connected. After the conductor connection structure and the connection device are electrically connected, a loop is formed. At this time, the level of the interface connected with the first resistor on the first processor changes from the first level to the second level. As long as the first processor determines that the level of the interface connected with the first resistor changes, it can be determined that the conductor connection structure and the connection device are electrically connected and a loop is formed, that is, the detection device and the connection device are electrically connected.

[0114] Similarly, as long as the first processor determines that the level of the interface connected with the first resistor on the first processor is switched from the second level to the first level, it can be determined that the loop becomes open circuit, the electrical connection between the detection device and the connecting device is disconnected, and it can be determined that the physical connection between the conductor connection structure and the connecting device is disconnected, so that the electrical connection is disconnected, the loop becomes open circuit, and the prompt information is output.

[0115] Further, the first resistor can also be connected with a direct current power supply, and a circuit structure diagram of the first resistor and the first processor is as shown in Figure 7 , which comprises:

[0116] The first processor 71, the first resistor R1, and the first interface 72.

[0117] The first processor 71 is connected with the first end of the first resistor R1 through the first interface 72 inside the first processor, and the second end of the first resistor R1 is connected with a direct current power supply;

[0118] Further, the circuit structure diagram can further comprise: a second resistor R2, the first end of the second resistor R2 is grounded, and the second end of the second resistor R2 is connected with the first end of the first resistor R1 as an input end and a conductor connection structure respectively, so that the conductor connection structure is electrically connected with the connecting device through the first input end A1 and the second input end A2, thereby forming a loop.

[0119] When the first input end A1 and the second input end A2 are electrically connected with the connecting device through the conductor connection structure, that is, the conduction of the first input end A1 and the second input end A2 is realized, the first interface 72 of the first processor is connected with the direct current power supply through the first resistor R1, when the loop is conducted, the first interface is directly connected with the connecting device through the conductor connection structure, and the current of the direct current power supply will not pass through the first resistor R1 to reach the first interface, so that the level of the first interface will change; similarly, after the loop is conducted, the level of the first interface is switched from the first level to the second level, such as from high level to low level, and after the loop is disconnected, the current of the direct current power supply passes through the first resistor R1 to reach the first interface again, so that the level of the first interface is switched from the second level to the first level, such as from low level to high level.

[0120] Among them, the direct current power supply can be 1.8V, or other voltages, which are not limited here.

[0121] Further, the conductor connection structure at least comprises: a first conductor and a second conductor.

[0122] The first conductor is used for connecting with the first end point of the first part of the locking tongue of the connecting device, and the second conductor is used for connecting with the first end point of the second part of the locking tongue of the connecting device, wherein the first part and the second part of the locking tongue of the connecting device are conductors, and the first end of the first part is not connected with the first end of the second part, and the second end of the first part is connected with the second end of the second part.

[0123] As shown in Figure 8 , it is a schematic diagram including a conductor connection structure and a connecting device, including: a first conductor 81, a second conductor 82, a first end point 83 of the first part of the locking tongue of the connecting device, and a first end point 84 of the second part of the locking tongue of the connecting device. As can be seen from the figure, the first end point 83 of the first part is not connected with the first end point 84 of the second part, and the second end point of the first part is connected with the second end point of the second part.

[0124] The first part and the second part are conductors, and the first conductor and the second conductor of the conductor connection structure are also conductive structures, which makes the conductor connection structure and the connecting device physically contact when the first part contacts the first conductor and the second part contacts the second conductor. And because the part inside the electronic device connected with the conductor connection structure is also conductive, when the conductor connection structure and the connecting device are physically connected, a loop is formed through the conductor connection structure and the connecting device.

[0125] By pushing the electronic device or the connecting device to move in the direction indicated by the arrow in the figure, the conductor connection structure of the electronic device and the connecting device can be physically connected, and a loop is formed at the same time.

[0126] Further, the first end point of the first part of the locking tongue of the connecting device and the first end point of the second part are not connected, in order to ensure that the two conductors are not connected, an insulating structure can be provided between the first end point of the first part and the first end point of the second part, so as to ensure that a loop is not formed inside the connecting device.

[0127] The electronic device disclosed in the embodiment includes a conductor connection structure, a first resistor, a detection device and a prompt device. The first resistor is arranged between the conductor connection structure and the detection device. If the first processor monitors that the level of the first interface is switched from the first level to the second level, it is determined that the detection device is electrically connected with the connecting device. The first interface is an interface in communication with the first resistor. If the first processor monitors that the level of the first interface is switched from the second level to the first level, it is determined that the electrical connection between the detection device and the connecting device is disconnected. The first resistor arranged between the conductor connection structure and the detection device is added to determine whether the connecting device and the detection device are electrically connected through the change of the interface level, and the detection accuracy is improved.

[0128] The electronic device disclosed in the embodiment has a structure schematic diagram asFigure 9 As shown, comprising:

[0129] The conductor connection structure 91, the detection device 92, the prompt device 93 and the second processor 94.

[0130] In addition to the same structure as the above embodiment, the second processor 94 is added in this embodiment.

[0131] The second processor is used to control the electronic device to switch from the first permission state to the second permission state when the first processor determines to output the prompt information, wherein the permission of the second permission state is less than the permission of the first permission state, and the electronic device is switched from the second permission state to the first permission state based on at least the verification information.

[0132] Wherein, the speed of the second processor responding to the prompt information of the first processor in the current running state of the electronic device is higher than the chip of other processors in the electronic device.

[0133] The first processor in the detection device is used to determine whether the electrical connection of the conductor connection structure and the connection device is disconnected and whether the spatial position of the electronic device is abnormal, and if the first processor determines that the electrical connection of the conductor connection structure and the connection device is disconnected or the spatial position is abnormal, the first processor generates prompt information, and outputs the prompt information through the prompt device; at the same time, the second processor can also receive the prompt information generated by the first processor, and the second processor adjusts the permission state of the electronic device based on the prompt information, so that if the electronic device is lost or stolen, the information in the electronic device will not be at risk of leakage.

[0134] The second permission state switches to the first permission state, no matter what the permissions included in the first permission state or the second permission state are, as long as the second processor receives the prompt information, the permission of the electronic device can be reduced through the second processor, and the permission can be reduced to the second permission state, which can specifically control the device to be locked or the device to be turned off.

[0135] After the electronic device is switched to the second permission state, if the permission of the electronic device is to be improved, verification is required.

[0136] The second processor can be a chip loaded with a BIOS program, and among the processors in the electronic device, only the processor loaded with the BIOS has a higher response speed than other processors, so when the electrical connection of the conductor connection structure and the detection device is detected to be disconnected or the spatial position of the electronic device is detected to be abnormal, the second processor will respond to the prompt information generated by the first processor first, reduce the permission state of the electronic device, so as to avoid information leakage of the electronic device and protect information security.

[0137] The second processor can also generate an alarm prompt at the same time when reducing the permission of the electronic device to the second permission state, which can be prompted in the form of sound.

[0138] Further, the electronic device can further include a third processor, wherein:

[0139] The second processor controls the electronic device to switch from the first permission state to the second permission state when the first processor determines to output the prompt information, including:

[0140] The second processor determines the permission state of the electronic device when the first processor determines to output the prompt information; if the electronic device is in the first permission state, the second processor sends the prompt information to the third processor to make the third processor control the operating system of the electronic device to switch to the second permission state, and if the electronic device is in the second permission state, the second processor controls the hardware of the electronic device to be in the second permission state based on the prompt information.

[0141] The second processor controls the electronic device to switch from the first permission state to the second permission state when the first processor determines to output the prompt information, which can be directly controlled by the second processor to switch to the second permission state, or the third processor can be controlled by the second processor to make the third processor control the electronic device to switch to the second permission state.

[0142] Specifically, when the first processor generates the prompt information, if the second processor determines that the electronic device is currently in the operating system state, i.e., the electronic device is in the first permission state, and the third processor is in the running state at this time, the third processor can be notified by the second processor to make the third processor switch the permission state of the electronic device based on the prompt information that the electrical connection between the connecting device and the conductor connecting structure is disconnected or the spatial position of the electronic device is abnormal, so as to reduce the permission state of the electronic device to ensure the safety of the information in the operating system of the electronic device.

[0143] Further, if the first verification instruction is obtained, the third processor controls the operating system of the electronic device to switch from the second permission state to the first permission state based on the first verification information, and the first verification information is obtained based on the first verification instruction.

[0144] That is, when the electronic device switches to the second permission state, it is switched by the third processor in the operating system state, so when the permission state of the electronic device needs to be raised, it is still controlled by the third processor, that is, when the permission state needs to be lowered, the third processor performs the operation of lowering the permission state, and then when the first verification instruction is obtained, the first verification information is obtained in the interface of the operating system of the electronic device when the permission state needs to be raised. If the verification is passed, the second processor switches the second permission state to the first permission state in the interface of the operating system to realize the promotion of the permission state, thereby ensuring the security of the information in the operating system of the electronic device.

[0145] In addition, when the first processor generates the prompt information, if the second processor determines that the electronic device is currently in the operation interface of the second processor, that is, not in the operating system state, and the third processor is also in the inactivated state, the adjustment of the permission state of the electronic device needs to be performed by the second processor.

[0146] The electronic device is in the operation interface of the second processor, at this time, the electronic device can be in the second permission state, if the electronic device is in the second permission state, the second processor does not need to adjust the operating system based on the prompt information, at this time, the permission of the hardware can be adjusted based on the prompt information. For example, the permission of the hardware of the electronic device is adjusted to the second permission state.

[0147] Among them, the hardware of the electronic device is in the first permission state, that is, the hardware of the electronic device is in the available state, the hardware of the electronic device is in the second permission state, that is, the hardware of the electronic device is in the unavailable state. Adjusting the permission of the hardware of the electronic device to the second permission state means that the hardware of the electronic device is in the state of being unavailable, so as to avoid that when the electronic device is lost or stolen, others crack the second permission state of the operating system based on the hardware of the electronic device.

[0148] Further, if after switching the hardware of the electronic device to the second permission state, a second verification instruction is obtained, and the hardware of the electronic device needs to be switched from the second permission state to the first permission state based on the second verification information, the second processor can be executed in the operation interface of the second processor.

[0149] Among them, the first verification instruction and the second verification instruction can be generated based on the shortcut key, or can be generated and displayed at the same time as the prompt information is output, or can be generated based on a specific operation performed by the user on the electronic device.

[0150] After the verification information is verified and the permission of the electronic device is switched from the second permission state to the first permission state, the prompt information can be removed at the same time, so as to avoid that the prompt information is still output for warning after the crisis of the electronic device is removed and the permission state is raised.

[0151] The electronic device disclosed by the embodiment comprises a conductor connection structure, a detection device, a prompt device and a second processor. The second processor is configured to control the electronic device to switch from a first permission state to a second permission state when the first processor determines to output prompt information, wherein the permission of the second permission state is less than the permission of the first permission state, and the electronic device is switched from the second permission state to the first permission state based on at least verification information, wherein the second processor is a chip with a higher response speed to the prompt information of the first processor in the current running state of the electronic device. The scheme responds to the prompt information generated by the first processor by the second processor with the fastest response speed, so as to switch the permission state of the electronic device, so that the permission state can be quickly reduced when the electronic device may be lost, and the loss of information in the electronic device is avoided, and the safety of information in the electronic device is ensured.
